I love your post it has a positive expression in every line. Hope Sx is even less and your labs go up or best they can be.

Thanks for your sharing like that.

Good results, keep hanging in there. This is the third time for me and each time the sides have been slightly different. Glad your not doing this alone. I'm grateful that my spouse Carol is in my life and understands the trials and tribulations of all of this.

Hi! I have also experienced the "mellow' feeling rather than the 'rage'. I am so glad for that. My husband doesn't do well with conflict (so we never fight, we just discuss things). You are on the same treatment that I am on. Did your 'taste' change over time? So far I haven't noticed a change in taste or appetite (but this is only week 2 for me, so I am wondering if that comes later).

Glad you got good news from your labs. I can't wait to get my first UND!

14 weeks into treatment.  Still und.  blood counts low.  Will see oncologist again for this.  My sx include headaches, skin rash (sores), joint pain.  Nausea, food taste wrong.  Lack of energy.   Itching.  Things I have learned.  Water taste good and is satisfying.  Fruit and fruit smoothies taste good and are refreshing.  Sweet Almond oil works to soften the skin.  Although tired.   I still get everything done.  Just not as quickly.  Sometimes I feel so good I over do it.  Nothing rids me of the headaches.  But they are not so bad that my life is put on hold.  I have gotten really good at injecting.  But still occasionally bruise.  Have not had any rage problems.  In fact have become more mellow and happier. . Probably due to being cleared so far.   My husband may occasionally disagree with this. But that may not be tx related.  I really love every day.  I appreciate my Dr warning me of the sx, but happy they have not been as horrible so far.  It seems they never hit me all at once.  I am glad to have found some place to talk.  And to be able to relate.   I hope to get to a point were i can be more open about Hep c.  But I still hesitate.  I am working on that.  Maybe i will make a dragon slayer t-shirt.  I wonder if anyone would know.
